If your main reason for choosing a lower-sugar syrup waffle is to reduce sugar, look for one with a clear comparison against a standard version. According to Albert Heijn, AH Roomboter minder suiker stroopwafels contain 32% less sugar than AH Roomboter stroopwafels, but still contain 23 g of sugars per 100 g. So compare the nutrition information per 100 g too, decide what portion you want to hand out and check the allergens on the packaging.
You’re looking for a syrup waffle for the procession with a specific comparison against a standard version. Check which product is used as the reference, then look at the sugars per 100 g and the portion size.
